So my buick 215 is getting to hot. I wasn't sure how accurate my gage was. On my way home from Parts obsolete swap meet on sunday it was in the mid 90's. My engine temp got up to 230 but seemed to be doing okay. Then it started cutting out on me. I pulled over to let it cool a it. After a good half hour I drove the rest of the way home. Engine temps were still close to 230 though. I have an old school setup I think.
My question is what radiator setup are you using? Also what engine temps are usual for you? Just trying to see which way to go. I'd like to make it better without forking out another grand for renegades new setup right now. Suggestions please! |

If you feel you don't wish to drive your car I may be willing to let you drive it at the WCR. I know I won't be able to be there most of the time as my little one to be is really not wanting to work with us on this one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Let me know. I hope you figure everything out though. |

I hope you figure everything out though. I appreciate the offer Jon & who knows. I'm hoping to get it cooling enough to be okay. A little pissed overall with the whole thing. Just running out of time. I did however get my wheels sorted out. I found a set of 16x7 fuchs with black centers & polished lips. So at least my wheels will match (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
